Ruby Order Form

Order Form

uThere is currently focused on new product and business development.

We will be adding to our R&D, production, and support teams, refining and adding exciting new capabilities to Ruby, and working with new and existing manufacturers to provide "ready to fly" aircraft for a variety of commercial, civil, military, and recreational applications.

At the same time, all of the people and businesses who have purchased Ruby over the years will continue to receive the same level of support that uThere is known for, as well as free software updates containing many of the refinements and additional functionality that we'll be creating in coming months.

uThere will now only accept orders from manufacturers, businesses, institutions, and researchers. We will also accept orders from anyone who has purchased Ruby in the past. We just won't sell to new hobbyist / recreational customers who have never installed Ruby before.

New customer initiation

Our products come with an extraordinary level of pro-active customer support. An experienced engineer will guide you through install and review detailed bench and flight data to ensure reliable and optimal performance in the airframe of your choice with a minimum of time and frustration. [more info]

To offset the cost of this service, we charge first-time customers a flat fee.

This fee will not be required if you have purchased Ruby in the past or if you are having your system installed by an existing Ruby customer or a business such as RitewingBuilds or FliteEvolution that specialize in building "ready to fly" UAV / FPV planes.

$250

Ruby Autopilot

All the hardware and support you need to give your planes capabilities including autonomous landing, launch, waypointing, return to home, assisted flight / "cruise control", and panic button.

Aircraft that you plan to use with Ruby

You can install your Ruby in just about any plane, and move it between several different planes simply by loading a different configuration file.

You can leave this field blank, but if you take a moment to tell us which planes you intend to use, we can provide extra advisory and support before your Ruby is shipped.

Indicate manufacturer and model(s),
i.e. "Multiplex Funjet", or a general description such as "2M foamie gliders".

Receiver(s) that you plan to use with Ruby

Indicate manufacturer and model,
i.e. "FrSky TFR4".

We'll provide a free adapter or cable to connect your receiver(s) to Ruby.

If you have a Spektrum transmitter, you'll need to use a satellite receivers directly with Ruby instead of a regular receiver [more info]. You may order Spektrum compatible satellite receivers here inexpensively (see below).

Handheld Transmitter(s) that you plan to use with Ruby

Indicate manufacturer and model,
i.e. "Spektrum DX7".

Indicate if using a transmitter module.
i.e. "Spektrum module for Futaba 9C"

We ask about your transmitter because certain ones require special receiver adapter cables.

Video Transmitter(s) that you plan to use with RubyOSD

Indicate manufacturer and model,
i.e. "ReadyMadeRC 800mw 1.3GHZ"

We ask about your transmitter because we have plug and play cables available to attach some of the more popular transmitters to RubyOSD.

Video Camera(s) that you plan to use with RubyOSD

Indicate manufacturer and model,
i.e. "ReadyMadeRC 700"

We ask about your transmitter because we have plug and play cables available to attach some of the more popular cameras to RubyOSD.

Add-Ons

Switching BEC

We recommend using a "switching BEC" to power Ruby rather than using a transmitter battery pack or the regulator built into most ESCs.
[more info]

Select the "CC BEC Pro" if you plan to use between 7 and 10 cell lipo packs. For lower voltage packs, the smaller, lighter "CC BEC" will suffice.

CC BEC PRO

ESC with built-in switching BEC

The Castle Creations "Phoenix ICE" line of electronic speed controls has a built-in switching BEC. This allows the external switching BEC to be eliminated.

We carry the 50 amp Phoenix ICE 50 and Phoenix Ice Lite 50 BECs in stock. The Lite does not have a heat sink, so it's smaller and lighter, but it has lower allowed input voltage, and requires better airflow for continuous high power output.

If you think you might often want to move your Ruby system between more than one plane, here's an extra set of sensors that are typically embedded into the airframe: GPS, airspeed / magnetometer, power sensor, control panel, along with all necessary cabling, and an extra SDFlash chip. With these in place you can simply plug your Ruby controller, Expander and OSD stack into the plane.
